Major New Verbier Lift Upgrades
Published : 10-Sep-2025 07:23
Verbier is working on a major lift upgrade that will see the retirement of the resort's ageing Savoleyres cable car and the introduction of a modern, high-capacity system linking Verbier with La Tzoumaz.
The first phase, due to open this winter 2025, involves a new six-seater chairlift from Les Planards to the Savoleyres summit. A second phase will follow in 2026/27, delivering a full Télémixte system that blends gondolas and chairs for year-round use.
The new Esserts–Savoleyres lift will feature 10-seater cabins and 6-seater chairs, with level-access stations designed for skiers, pedestrians and cyclists. The upgrade is expected to ease congestion, improve accessibility and enhance the overall experience across the 4 Vallées ski area.
A new piste will also be created to connect Le Carrefour to Les Esserts via a forest trail and tunnel, improving downhill flow into Verbier.
